I wanted to create a work which gently, and light heartedly touched upon the ageless human dilemma of making a choice, I didn't want it to be heavy or too deep in its imagery, and I wanted to keep it objectively decorative. The two cats (one black, one white) represent the clear cut options we have in the big choices we all have to make, there is rarely a third way, we either stay, or move. The cats gaze out at a view which is diametrically opposed to their surroundings, we can only guess what they are considering. The clock without hands speaks for itself.....the rest I'll leave to the viewer, there's no great mystery!

I have been working as a freelance ceramics and glass restorer since being professionally trained in the early 1990's. As such, i have carried out projects for The British Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC, Glasgow Museums, The Conservation Centre, Salisbury and The National Palace Museum, Taiwan. I decided to re utilise my skills accumulated over several decades and apply them to canvas. My influences are many and varied from Pop Art to Surrealism, Abstract, Expressionism to Impressionism. I adore exploring and trying out new things with acrylic medium and find the process theraputic and very satisfying, I hope this is reflected in my work...
